Color Analysis

Many ethnic and multiethnic women wonder about color and how to apply it to their beauty and fashion routine.  Now we all know that not every one can wear all the same colors.  Colors do not match some skin tones and undertones of ethnic and multiethnic women.  There are some fashion styles that do not look right whether in certain colors or styles. 

 Ever go fashion shopping and saw something you liked but despised the color even more so?  Then you know what I’m talking about and what I mean.

At the Ethnic Beauty Site at bellaonline.com there are several articles addressing the color dilemma for ethnic beauties every where.  Knowing your skin tone and undertone can go a long way in helping you determine what colors you can wear and which ones to stay away from.

There are many ways to mix and match colors as well as wear them.  The biggest contributions to the colors we wear and like are our eye color, hair color and skin color.   Many women seek to change their hair and eye color not realizing that some of the colors do not enhance but actually take away from a persons beauty.

Ethnic Beauty Site Evaluation

As I mentioned before, I edit the Ethnic Beauty site hosted at bellaonline.com. As I research content and information online for my articles, periodically I run across some really unique and special web sites.  When I do I like to share my opinion or experience with others.

There is a lot of information on the web today and so I try to take some of the guess work out of finding and choosing good ites to learn from.

As I researched for this week’s article for the Ethnic Beauty site,  I came across a very informative and helpful site on Personal Image and color analysis.

New Skin Care Product Line

Hello to All

There is a line of skin care products made especially for Asian, Latin and African American skintones.  I have heard of this line before.  Recently I was contacted by this company through the Ethnic Beauty site on Bellaonline.com.  They wanted me to try out their products.  I agreed.

It has been 3 weeks since I’ve started using the products and the difference is amazing both good and bad, I must say.  But I promised to give the products a whole month, 30 days, to see how my skin would react and how the product would work on my face.  I must say again I am very, well pleased.

There’s something to be said about settling for healthy skin.  Knowing you are doing everything you can to take care of your skin gives you a glow. It gives you a confidence and that confidence allows you to be beautiful, even if it is only because you know you take care of yourself.  You feel good regardless of how you may look or appear to others.

After the first 2 days of using the products I begin to notice a difference in the feel of my skin.  You know how your skin feels when you use your hands to wash your face.  After just 2 days I noticed a smoothness and suppleness coming back to my face.  Now I thoroughly enjoy my skin care regimen.

After  about a week and a half I asked my family if they could see any difference in my skin texture or tone/complexion.  They couldn’t tell.  Of course I live with men so you can imagine the looks I got.  Any way it wasn’t until a couple of days ago my DS told me he could see the differnece.  He said he could see the smoothness in my skin.  So I could feel the difference after 2-3 days of use and others could notice a difference after 2-3 weeks.  Not bad timing for me and my face.

Now this skin care regimen is a 3 step regimen to be performed twice a day.  As I said before the products are designed for Latin, Asian and African American skintones and types.  You know who you are? The line has 3 different formulations for the different skin types and conditions of ethnic skin.

I must admit, I have trouble with all skin care products no matter how natural or botanical they are.  My skin is very sensitive, but this line of products do not contain the same harsh chemicals or ingredients that actual burn and scar already sensitive and damaged ethnic skin.  I am the one who will have adverse effects no matter what I use on my skin.  This product was gentle to and on my skin.  It is very refreshing waking to the skin.  My skin felt rejuvenated, soft and plyable.

There is so much more to tell about this special line of skin care products for Asian, Latin and African American skintones. There are pro’s and con’s to be considered.  

Look for my full review in the coming weeks.  I know some of  you will have questions after reading this this post but all questions will be answered in the review.  So please hold all questions until after the review comes out.  Then you can ask all the questions you want.  But until then I wanted to whet your curiosity.  I will also reveal a secret surprise that I love about this line of products.

 So be sure to subscribe to the blog to find out when and where my review will be posted live. 

Until next time…
